MONTANA LEGISLATURE.
The Work Under Consideration by
the Extra Session.

the Extra Session.
Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Aug. 31.-ThiS is the
third day of the extra session of the
fifteenth legislature. Gov. Leslie's
message, delivered the first day, has
been dissected and referred in parts to
the joint committee of the two houses.
The principal points to be covered by
law-making at this session are amend
mentS to the revenue license and bounty
laws, all of which were left in bad shape
by the regular session last winter. To-
day Collins, of ChOtear county, intro
duced a bill to create the new county of
Cascade. 1t is for the benefit of Great
Falls, the Jim Hill town, which is to be
the county seat. If created the new
county will take about 1000 square
miles from MeaghOr county and 600 each
from Chotear, Lewis and Clarke.
Great Falls men and Manitoba infiu-
ences are being brought to bear to Sc
cure the passage of the bill. There is
more lobbying over it than ON any other
measure. No bills have been passed
yet. The following have been intro
duced in the council:
No. Ito make train wrecking a felony
punishable by Imprisonment of five years or
life, ana by death if fatal injuries result.
NO. 10 dltSr the Legislative appOrtlOn-
ment SO as to give Fergus and Park counties
council representation.
No. $40 create Cascade county.
No. Ito amend the criminal laws
No. 5-To amend the gunpowder storage
law.
IN THE HOUSE.
No. Ito establish and maintain terrific
rial insane asylum, the insane now being
cared for by private parties under contract
by the territory.
No. 2-To provide for the assessment and
levy of taxes. This is substantially COM
pilation of the old revenue laws. The reve-
nue. law passed last winter will be repealed.
No. 3-To amend fee bill i'll minor particu-
lars.
No. ITO create the Office of attorney gen.
eral of Montana.
No. 5-Government of the Office of police
magistrate in incorporated towns.
Both houses are pushing work, and
mean to get through the session as soon
as possible. A resolution passed the
house to-day setting Sept. 10 as the day
for sine die adjournment, but it has
not yet appeared in the upper branch.

ceremonies, and the spectators seemed
to be actuated by willingness to see
one thing at time and to realize that
there are yet six weeks in which
the wonders of the great show can be
viewed. The afternoon was much cooler
than the afternoon of Aug. 90, 1886,
when the skylight seemed to act like a
huge magnifying glass, and the rays of

ing contrasts when the almost cha
Oti condition of the floors one
year ago is remembered. In
fact, it can be said that the Exposition
yesterday opened in better working
order than it closed last year. Of the
600 exhibits all were in place with the
exception of three. The comments to
be made upon the character and ar
Iangement of the displays can hardly be
Otherwise than complimentary. There
are double the number of exhibits, and
each is allotted only half as much space
as was before given. The aisle room is
considerably increased which will add
greatly to the comfort of the visitors.
The location and arrangement of the
displays is much better, it being notice
able that those exhibits of such heighth
and size that they can be seen from a
distance are placed at the rear and not
before smaller articles, as was too often

Forced Out of Business.

Special to the Globe
WINoNA, Aug. 31.-The high-license
law takes effect in this city tomorrow.
At the special meeting of the city coun-
Gil, to give hearing on the application
for license, there were no objections
made to any of the applicants. and
twenty-five bonds were filed and ap-
proved. The other twelve applicants
failed to raise the required 81 600.
One more application was filed
to-day, so that there will be
total of twenty-three saloons. Last
year there were ninety-three. The in
crease to the city, which the treasury
can use to advantage this month, viii
be 5000, against $4,000 last year.
There is good deal of dissatisfaction
with the law, as some seventy men
nave been driven out of business. caus-
ing that number of places vacant. The
Fourth ward suffers most. Here there
were nearly score of places where
beer was sold, and but three have been
able to raise the 1000. One more is i'm
the First ward, one near the depot and
the others are all in the Second and
Third wards.

1t is again my pleasant duty to call to order
vast assembly to witness the opening cere-
monies of the Minneapolis Industrial Expo
sition. A little more than year ago l per-
formed this pleasant duty. The first formal
opening of this Exposition year ago was
under a great pressure. What marvels were
accomplished in the short period seem in
credible.
Owing to the limited time the management
labored under great difficulties, and have not
been able to accomplish all that they
desired, yet 1 think the judg-
firm me in saying that the Exposition of
1885 was great success. This year the
pressure has been somewhat relieved and we
have far surpassed last years record. 1 de-
sire to say on behalf of the management that
nothing has been left undone to make what
so grand an entertainment should be. We
have sought to make it place of entertain
ment and instruction to all. If that has not
been done it is not the fault of the manage
mept.
desire now to invite the generous and lib
eral patronage of the public, SO that IN that
respect this years Exposition shall not fall

many. is not allowed this year
to mOnOpoliZe space to the exclusion of
other branches of machinery, and the
same diScernment seems to be exercised
throughout the entire exposition, the
idea being to give little of everything
rather than good deal of the same
thing by limiting the representatives
of the different branches of industry
and art to few leading exponents of
each. The absence of the rather un-
slightly rockery is noticeable, and the
substitution of fountain, to be illum-
mated with colored lights during the
evening, is great improvement.
The art gallery has received especial
attention, and a greater outlay has been
made in this department than in any
other. 1t is fair to say that from either
an artistic or financial standpoint the
collection of paintings and statuary is
three times more valuable than was
shown last year. The Scandinavian ex-
hibit of $50 pictures is alone wanting,
but is expected to arrive shortly.

OYRUs FIELD AND HIS DAUGHTER

MIR. Field was seated in big chai
in a downtown office. He was COO
and seli-possessed. He talked on al
sorts of subjects. His quick, nervous
eye was riveted upon his desk. Before
him lay an open telegram. Every
few minutes he would pick it up and
read it. Then his face frightened. A
smile played about the corners of his
mouth He seemed as pretty as sun.

"Ah! that is better than q check for

Read what it says. Give it to me and
I'll read it. Never mind-I know il
by heart. Isn't it good news2 Its
the best thing I've heard in month "
1t was from his family physician
and read:
"Your daughter is very much bet
ter. She is improving very fast. She
sends you her love-"
And then 1 remembered that his
daughter, his fayorite child, i, an in
valid and has been such for years, and
her father is more wrapped up in her
than all else. He has taken her all
over the world, to the best physicians
in Europe and America, and has spent
q fortune in trying to get her health
restored. He has been like an elder
brother to her. and has lavished time
and attention upon her, to the exclu-
sion of all else. Many big financial
deal has had TO wait until Mr.. Field
stole a say to his daughters sickroom,
where he often acted as nurse rs we'll
as companion. 1t has been his habit
10 spend most of his leisure time in his
daughters company. He would read
to her, gossip with her, tell her the
news of the day and was withal so
cheerful in her presence that in her
moments of greatest pain she would
cry out tor her father
''Sit near me, father; I'm very
SICK" she would say to him, "but
shall be better soon. You are always
SO cheerful and so hopeful that you do
me more good than drugs"
Time and again Mr.. Field, man OF
blood and iron, gians in finance, a
Gibraltar in determination, has sunk
down disheartened in his office chair,
and buried his face in his hands, sob
bing like babe because of the bad re-
ports OF his daughters health. On the
very day of the late panic he walked
up and down his Office floor wringing
his hands in frenzy of grief. The
news that day from his daughter was
unfavorable, and he was afraid that he
might not see her alive again. His
millions were slipping through his
fingers, but he gave his orders to his
brokers quietly and would then re-
sumo his pacing TO and fro. This
child has been the apple OF his eye.
